18K Gold Africa Map Pendant

The 18K Gold Africa Map Pendant – Egyptian jewelry is a unique piece. Africa is the most interesting and diverse continent on the earth. This is due to  the incredible variety of people, animals, climates, and spectacular places. It is a continent known for its beautiful colorful clothing and its history of incredible works of art.  Africa is the home of the world’s first great civilization, Egypt which dates back to 3300 BC.

Africa is the birth place of mankind and human civilization. It is also where people first made and wore jewelry. Perforated pea-sized snail shells used as beads dating back 75,000 years have been unearthed in a cave, on the coast of South Africa. In Kenya beads over 40,000 years old made from perforated ostrich egg shells have been discovered. As time moved on the African craftsmen improved their jewelry. Hence making techniques resulting today in some of the most beautiful jewelry in the world.

Through out history Africans have tended to use organic materials. Materials that were already available in their region to create their jewelry. This was especially true in their early history. Later on trade with other people increased the types of materials available for jewelry making.
